An EPRI workshop to address fossil plant heat rate improvement was co-hosted by Duke Power Company in Charlotte, North Carolina on August 26-28, 1981. The proceedings contain the text of the formal presentations as well as summaries of six working group sessions which were devoted to topics of particular interest to the workshop participants. The 224 attendees represented a broad spectrum of utilities, equipment manufacturers from Europe and Japan, as well as the US, engineering consultants and members from a state public service commission. The formal sessions were organized under the following general topics: Utility Heat Rate Improvement Programs; Plant Modeling, Performance Analysis, and Testing; Advanced Low Heat Rate Coal Plant Design; and Equipment Efficiency Improvement. Twenty-eight papers have been entered individually into EDB and ERA. (LTN)
